So I Tried Lash Extensions And They Kinda Changed My Life

So I Tried Lash Extensions And They Kinda Changed My Life

Me dramatic" Never.

Okay so the title of this post, does sound way, way dramatic, or extra as the cool kids these days would say. But in all seriousness, lash extensions are my new fave thing and they literally were so much more than just lash extensions to me. What am I going on about" To be honest, I'm not really sure either, but let's just roll with it.

So let's go back a bit here, cause I've started on a bit of a weird spoiler, so basically, I don't like my lashes. My natural lashes that is. I know it's mean, because my poor lashes have never done anything to offend me, but they're just a bit meh. They don't really stand out, and even sometimes with mascara they're a bit non existent. I've found myself reaching for false lashes more often than not, as I feel they finish off my make up look.

However, when I booked our holiday to Orlando, I knew that false lashes probably wouldn't be the best things to wear in 30 degree+ heat, I know that I could, you know go without, but I do feel better with lashes on and well I wanted to feel nice whilst we were away, but I did realise that the humid hot weather wouldn't be the best for make up.

So I had an idea, why not get lash extensions right" A lot of you on twitter recommended getting a LVL instead as it's less high maintenance but being the drama queen I am, I knew I wanted more and after reading Claudia's post on SVS lashes by Nouveau Lashes, my mind was made up.

Now, I did email the Nouveau Lashes PR just for some advice about SVS lashes and local salons, as I was a little apprehensive of getting lash extensions as I didn't want them to look too spiky/too big for my eyes. I didn't want to look like 18 year old me on a night out, trying to make the Cheryl Girls Aloud lashes work for me, when in reality, I looked like I'd glued three spiders to my lashes very badly. Not a good look.So Nouveau Lashes very kindly and generously offered to send a therapist to my home ( I know!) to do my lashes for me before I went away on holiday. I of course, accepted this offer, and genuinely imagined this is how Kate Middleton must feel like every day.

Debbie was the lovely therapist who did my lashes, and she was so friendly and knew exactly what I wanted, my initial worries were instantly dispersed when I met her. We decided that yes SVS lashes were the right treatment for me, and she spoke to me about how I would need to care for them (more on that later) and if I would be okay with this. I had also done a patch test 48 hours in advance to my treatment to check I wasn't allergic to the glue. So I was all set to go.

So let's speak now about what SVS lashes actually are, cause to be honest with you, I didn't know what they were till I read Claudia's post.

So SVS lashes stands for : Speed, Volume and Style.

The treatment combines two of Nouveau's already popular treatments; express and extend, but this also incorporates volume into the mix. SVS lashes are to ensure that you...
